Is that an estimate or has someone actually done 170+mph in a Charger. Just curious, not doubting it at all.

Never mind. Here's one as long as it's a legit stockish SRT-8.

Thanks for asking. It's been great. Only put about 12.5k this calendar year thanks to the bike and the live-in GF. Big, but fun!

Looking forward getting the Diablo tuner. Then I should make 400whp on 91 Octane, 415-420+ on 93 Octane, if I benchmark with results from other guys.

are you saying your girl friend is big but fun? no shame in that...[sm=drooldude.gif]

170 electronically limited for the SRT8, the R/T will not hit 170 stock and even with the limiter removed I don't think it'd get to 160, more like 150. But yeah, stock SRT8s hit 170 easily.

From the looks of the video above hitting 170 easily might be a bit of a stretch but it got there none the less.

A lot easier than an R/T or SRT4 But yeah, the term easily was meant that it gets to 170 with no needed modifications, just a stock old SRT8 will hit 170. Theres a couple other videos out there, one from a guy in the UAE, and I think one from a guy in SoCal, either way I don't think most cars will be racing up to 170 so it's really pointless

Yea your right. Most only race the 1/4 mile. And I only need 11 seconds of your time to cover that distance

Haha yep, been lurking on here for a while (friends @ work drive Mustangs) and seen your 1/4 mile times quoted before. Just too bad the guys around here who claim to have Stage 3s end up seeing my tail lights, seems like every SRT4 owner around here has a 'Stage 3 and NOS', ah well. Nice times though man.

I've said it before but 90% of SRT-4 owners are full of **** about their mods.[:@]

Haha, not just SRT4 drivers, seen just about every type of car with people who claim things out the *** to scare people out of races, or make themselves feel badass get their asses handed to them by a car they said was complete crap cause their car had XYZ. Wish they had the stickers to make my SRT8 faster, the after market sucks for these cars
